Curved Roofs & Tension Fabric Structures for Commercial Buildings
Fordingbridge
curved roofs & tension fabric structures are ideal for commercial
buildings, offering an elegant, airy and robust permanent structure for
a range of commercial uses including outdoor shelters. Providing a
complete design and build service, the construction of a Fordingbridge bespoke, enclosed building is particularly appropriate where on-site construction needs to be managed with minimal disruption.
In addition, Fordingbridge outdoor canopies, awnings and walkways
are a cost-effective useful addition to any Fordingbridge commercial
building where a porch, entrance canopy, waiting area or an open-air
but sheltered storage area is required. Canopies, awnings and walkways
can be built in a variety of shapes to suit the site including
horseshoes, staggered (to cope with a sloping site), and long, flowing
spans alongside or between buildings.
The frames are
mainly steel in construction with a composite roof and curtain walling
with micro rib composite side walls as standard.
Our canopies, awnings and walkways
are offered in laminated timber frames or steel frames with the latter
provided in hot dip galvanised steel finish as standard with RAL/BS
paint finish also available.
Fabric curved roofs
- guaranteed for five years - allow 60% light transmission whilst
giving 95% UV protection. The triple wall polycarbonate is guaranteed
for ten years. Both coverings are fire retardant.
Our insulated buildings
are fully L2 Building Regulations compliant, with glazed walling
options and curved roofs with the option of composite roofs with or
without fixed or opening rooflight sections, alternatively roofs can be
part or fully glazed.
The frames are mainly steel in
construction with a composite roof and curtain walling with micro rib
composite side walls as standard.
We also offer a tension fabric design
and construction service, providing a range of elegant design solutions
offering permanent structures with a lightweight appearance and minimal
structural support but a long life.
The steel framed
structures are hot-dip galvanised or RAL/BS painted finish, plus fabric
membrane offering durability of 10 to 20 years for the PVC membrane, to
25-30 years with the PTFE membrane coating.
Shapes include: cantilevered, hypar, umbrella and double conic. We are continually exploring the application's possibilities.
Full building regulations calculations and CDM package are available with all structures.
